Im trying to allow the user to drag the text back and forth from labels. The code I have below seems to just show the little circle with a slash through it, and I cant drag or drop the text?
Private Sub Label_MouseDown(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.MouseEventArgs) Handles Label1.MouseDown, Label2.MouseDown, Label3.MouseDown
Dim lbl As Label = DirectCast(sender, Label)

There is an image of a patient on the form.I have to mark the location of wounds on this picture.What I want to do is place 5 labels on a form.I am using these labels to mark the location of the wounds.these labels will be shown on the side of the form.the user can drag any one of the labels to a specific location on the image of the person.e.g face,head,leg.arm etc
Then I want to save the location of the labels in database so that when the record of the patient is retrieved the labels appear on the moved position.
As I have been working on a project from a development book for self learning, I am having a problem with Dragging and dropping on my form. My form has labels that represent questions on one side and labels on the other side to be drag/dropped as the answers. I understand that under the element's properties there is Dragdrop and you can work with that, but how exactly do I actually make the element drag/drop? I want to be able to click and hold the element to drag drop, just as you would for reorganizing preferred settings or for my case of a drag/drop Q and A form.

View 2 RepliesI created a program that has serval labels on a form and a listview object. It has a button that when clicked reads a textfile and loads up values in the listview object. I then can click and drag text from the listview box to any label on the form and then the program removes the value from the listview box. Now, my question is how can I instruct VB to save these values in the text property of the labels so that the next time the program is loaded the labels will contain the values loaded during the last run time session?

But there are ALOT of labels (about more than 300) and typing them out (or selecting them in the menu) consumes alot of time. Is there anyway to put the rest of them? I have about 8 groupboxes with these labels that need to be changed (there is another one that doesnt need this) so they are labels inside of groupboxes.
I have a open and file save dialog which I use to open and save file. There are also some labels in the application. During the time a file is open or saved, the file open /save dialog becomes blurred by the background labels. Is there any way to prevent this? The attached pic is given as an example to explain the dilemma.
View 1 RepliesI am trying to generate buttons and allow the user to drag and drop them.
I have this sub:

Also if I declare the nodebtn as a global variable, I do not face this problem, the button is dragable. However when I click to add new buttons, no new button is generated, instead a button is generated with the count on it.

View 5 RepliesHow can i drag already created user control into a form? In a clear statement, i have created a user control. I need to use this user control 2 times and i need to drag it into a form.
I currently using vb 2008 express edition.
I am converting my company's VB6 program over to VB.net and I have hit another stupid little roadblock.
The old program had a ListView docked to the left side of the application screen. The user could place the cursor over the right portion of the ListView, the cursor would turn into the SizeWE arrows, then they could drag it, which would resize the ListView.
I am trying to recreate this. As far as I can tell there is no Property called "Resizable," or at least nothing is popping out to me. I do not believe that it is being done in the code.
Is there a property I am missing? If not, is there an easy way to do this within the code? (ie. is there a event that would make my life easier)
I am using Visual Studio 2008.
Edit: I see how how it was done in the previous program (you always seem to find it once you ask the question, don't you?). The old program had a invisible picture that was only a few pixels wide that when hovered over would change the cursor to SizeWE. You could then drag that invisible picture and that would hit an event that would then change the size of the ListView. This seems rather convoluted. My question still stands: Is there a better way to handle this dragging and resizing?
how to permanently save to text files then re-open all of the information again using SFD and OFD. Now my teacher has come back at me and said that i need to be able to save the information from multiple text boxes and have the text in certain labels to also be saved into the one text file (the labels need to be done because it is a database and these labels are like the fields and the right text box needs to match the right label)
View 39 RepliesI've made a user control and have added some internal labels inside it. In the User control class I'm trying to handle the mouse events so that: When the mouse enters the User-Control the background of the User-Control turns white - using MouseEnter event. When the mouse leaves the User-Control the background of the User-Control turns grey - using MouseLeave event. However as soon as I move the mouse over the internal labels it triggers the MouseLeave event. I don't want it to do that, because the mouse hasn't left the bounds of the User-Control! So, how do I get it to not trigger the MouseLeave event when the mouse is still internal to the User-Control?

View 2 Replieshow can i make the user be able to drag around picture boxes around the form???
[Code]...
I have an application where I have different picture boxes which the user can drag and move.I also have different empty pictureboxes.
What I want to do:I want to let the user be able to drag a picturebox to one of the empty pictureboxes. Also, If the user drags a picturebox to an invalid place (outside the bounds of any of the empty pictureboxes), the dragged picture box should return to its previous location.
So what I currently have is the usual drag-drop code and on the MouseUp event, I run this code (currently only checking for one empty picturebox):
If Not pbEmpty1.Bounds.Contains(Me.PointToClient(pbRemote.Location)) Then
pbRemote.Location = OldLocation
End If
(pbEmpty1 = Empty picturebox, pbRemote = picturebox that is dragged)
But it doesn't work, it doesn't care if the picturebox is inside the bounds of the empty picturebox or not, it still returns to its previous location...

View 1 RepliesI'm working with ASP.NET and VB.NET. I have a page which contains 5 user controls. the page itself does nothing, it just presents the user controls to the user.
The user controls work fine when I come on the page, or when I refresh, but when I go to another page, and press 'Back' only two of my user controls shows up, and they don't work like they're supposed to!
Short description of the controls:
2 controls which look if the user has to create something and shows an option to do so. (goes to the DB)
2 controls show an overview if needed (goes to the DB)1 control looks if the user is an admin (does not go to the DB, but looks in the securityContext)

I would like to make a method excute right before the user get back controle of the program. No matter what chain of events happens i would like to beable to have a method is always the last thing to excute. I plan on using the method to check the form and the data on it. I have no issues righting the method, I just don't know if their is a event or some other way to make sure it is always the last thing to excute. (Sorta like a validation method) Is their an easy way to do this?
View 5 RepliesI have a VB .NET (VS 2008) application which allows the user to drag and drop a xls file onto the form and a DataGridView fills with the xls sheet data. The user than can apply changes to the data or add entries. Data integrity is checked during the load into the DataGridView (duplicates are removed and invalid entries are filtered out). After doing all this the user can click a button and the data is uploaded to a SQL server (2008) DB. I have a primary key set up (row number) and I have a compound key in the SQL table.
It is all working beautifully. Now here is my question:
I want to check for duplicate entries (between SQL server and DataGridView data) before the data is uploaded and commited to the table. What would be the most efficient way to that?

View 1 RepliesI would like to try and implement a feature wherby once you have logged into an application (straightforward winforms application) and had your credetials verified the application would then force you to log on again if no activity had been detected in the application for a certain number of minutes. In essence I want to provide some extra security for those occasions when users get up and wander away from their machines for prolonged periods.
I have all the logic for logging into the application, it's just the checking for no activity over a given period and then forcing the user to log back in again that I'm not having much luck with.
